Statement from Governor Phil Murphy on Recent Anti-Semitic Incident in Congressman Gottheimer’s District

09/29/2018

“Any instance of anti-Semitism is abhorrent. But that the same family has been violated again with such depravity is absolutely disgusting. This is beyond a sick game. This is malicious and purposeful.

“I fully support the State Police in their investigation of this hateful act. I urge anyone with information regarding the identification of these vandals to come forward.

“Let me be perfectly clear: we will find those responsible and prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law. This is not who we are as New Jerseyans or as Americans. The values of hate will never win.”
